High-speed, high-luck fighters that rely on fast strikes and favorable RNG. They excel at outspeeding opponents and triggering critical hits or bonus effects.
Notes
Her name is probably derived from “Megami” (女神), which means “goddess” in Japanese, and “tosa” or “tōsa” (屠殺), which means “slaughter” or “massacre.”
Megamitosa appears to draw inspiration from several elements of Japanese folklore, fitting the Mythos aspect of the game. One possible influence is the Kuchisake-onna (“Slit-Mouthed Woman”), a yōkai associated with her Anomalous typing. Kuchisake-onna is traditionally depicted as a woman who partially conceals her face with a mask or another covering and carries scissors, a knife, or another sharp object.
Another possible source of inspiration is her hair, which shares the color of wisteria flowers. In Japanese culture, wisteria can be associated with femininity, grace, beauty, and elegance, while also carrying an element of mystery and danger. This symbolism may connect to her Anomalous type, as wisteria is sometimes linked to the boundary between the human and spiritual worlds.
Her body seems to be a kimono, her obi which is a taiko-musubi, represents a symbol of young, of beauty and of lightness. This type of knot called chō-musubi represents the joy and the happiness connecting directly to description of the Animon. Concerning her hat there don’t seem to be a precise example which correspond the design but it’s a possible form of the Ichimegasa which a hat designed for the women with a high status or the Amigasa with some designs (with a ribbon) who ressemble the one Megamitosa have. The small gems seems to be some amethyst which have a purple color associated with the spirits and all sacred stuff, in modern age the amethyst is used as a power source to communicate with the other world and for the exorcism.
